I use Slackware.
1. Small memory footprint.
2. I don't even know what apparmor is, but it's not in Slackware.
3. Snaps (and flatpak) is not part of Slackware.
4. No systemd. Simple init system.
5. Very stable, with frequent security updates.
6. Boots to CLI by default. If you want X, type "startx".
7. Other distro users are envious of you for running Slackware.
You should use Slackware.
... Something will have to be done, something irresponsible.
